3. • advanced, progressive, incurable conditions
People are ‘approaching the end of life’ when they are likely to die within the next 12 months.
This includes people whose death is imminent (expected within a few hours or days) and those with:
• advanced, progressive, incurable conditions
• general frailty and co-existing conditions that mean they are expected to die within 12 months
• existing conditions if they are at risk of dying from a sudden acute crisis in their condition
• life-threatening acute conditions caused by sudden catastrophic events.

6. 1. Each person is seen as an individual
I, and the people important to me, have opportunities to have honest, informed and timely conversations and to know that I might die soon. I am asked what matters most to me. Those who care for me know that and work with me to do what’s possible.

7. 2. Each person gets fair access to care
I live in a society where I get good end of life care regardless of who I am, where I live or the circumstances of my life.

11. 4. Care is coordinated
I get the right help at the right time from the right people. I have a team around me who know my needs and my plans and work together to help me achieve them. I can always reach someone who will listen and respond at any time of the day or night.

13. 6. Each community is prepared to help
I live in a community where everybody recognises that we all have a role to play in supporting each other in times of crisis and loss. People are ready, willing and confident to have conversations about living and dying well and to support each other in emotional and practical ways.
